Although specific policies vary, homosexuals who meet the state's requirements are permitted to be foster parents. Various studies have shown that homosexuals are no more likely to molest children than heterosexuals.
Like everyone else, they will be questioned about their motives, have a criminal background check, psychological evaluation, etc., and if they meet the requirements, they go through the same training as everyone else.
Once they are licensed, they must meet the same standards as everybody else.
This is not an endorsement of homosexuality. It is simply the Law.
